The Perfect Cup of Tea

You don't necessarily need a $13,000 tea machine to make the perfect cup of tea! We also answer a wide assortment of viewer questions from viewers around the world.

Notes:We used one of the Logitech C920 webcams for our main camera this week to see if we could get good picture without the flicker.
